[QUOTE="BSK, post: 5186627, member: 17"] I'm a firm believer in in reducing opportunities for the spread of CWD, such as transport of game laws/rules. I also favor STRONGLY discouraging the feeding of deer, salt licks, or use of bait piles in CWD areas. However, I'm not a believer in the "greatly reduce the deer density" theory. People point to the IL data, yet that data comes without control. You can also look at other states who have tried the "reduce the deer density" tactic and it has not stopped the spread of CWD. In my personal/professional opinion, trying to knock out the deer population to slow the spread of CWD is throwing the baby out with the bathwater. CWD is here to stay. It will slowly spread throughout the whitetails' range. The only answer is letting Nature take her course, and allow a natural immunity to develop and foster. Sadly for today's hunters, that will probably take centuries. But Nature always finds a way. [/QUOTE]
